It is possible for ide-cd to ignore ide_error()'s return value under
some circumstances.  Workaround it in ide_intr() and ide_timer_expiry()
by checking if there is a device/port reset pending currently.

Fixes bug #13345:

8369d5fa63 ide: fix 40-wire cable detection for TSST SH-S202* ATAPI devices (v2)
Since 2.6.26 we support UDMA66 on ATAPI devices requiring IVB quirk:

  commit 8588a2b732
  ("ide: add SH-S202J to ivb_list[]")

We also later added support for more such devices in:

  commit e97564f362
  ("ide: More TSST drives with broken cable detection")

and in:

  commit 3ced5c49bd
  ("ide: add TSSTcorp CDDVDW SH-S202H to ivb_list[]")

It turns out that such devices lack cable detection altogether
(which in turn results in incorrect detection of 40-wire cables
by our current cable detection strategy) so always handle them
by trusting host-side cable detection only.

v2:
Model detection fixup from Martin.

564c2b210a perf_counter: Optimize context switch between identical inherited contexts
When monitoring a process and its descendants with a set of inherited
counters, we can often get the situation in a context switch where
both the old (outgoing) and new (incoming) process have the same set
of counters, and their values are ultimately going to be added together.
In that situation it doesn't matter which set of counters are used to
count the activity for the new process, so there is really no need to
go through the process of reading the hardware counters and updating
the old task's counters and then setting up the PMU for the new task.

This optimizes the context switch in this situation.  Instead of
scheduling out the perf_counter_context for the old task and
scheduling in the new context, we simply transfer the old context
to the new task and keep using it without interruption.  The new
context gets transferred to the old task.  This means that both
tasks still have a valid perf_counter_context, so no special case
is introduced when the old task gets scheduled in again, either on
this CPU or another CPU.

The equivalence of contexts is detected by keeping a pointer in
each cloned context pointing to the context it was cloned from.
To cope with the situation where a context is changed by adding
or removing counters after it has been cloned, we also keep a
generation number on each context which is incremented every time
a context is changed.  When a context is cloned we take a copy
of the parent's generation number, and two cloned contexts are
equivalent only if they have the same parent and the same
generation number.  In order that the parent context pointer
remains valid (and is not reused), we increment the parent
context's reference count for each context cloned from it.

Since we don't have individual fds for the counters in a cloned
context, the only thing that can make two clones of a given parent
different after they have been cloned is enabling or disabling all
counters with prctl.  To account for this, we keep a count of the
number of enabled counters in each context.  Two contexts must have
the same number of enabled counters to be considered equivalent.

Here are some measurements of the context switch time as measured with
the lat_ctx benchmark from lmbench, comparing the times obtained with
and without this patch series:

		-----Unmodified-----		With this patch series
Counters:	none	2 HW	4H+4S	none	2 HW	4H+4S

2 processes:
Average		3.44	6.45	11.24	3.12	3.39	3.60
St dev		0.04	0.04	0.13	0.05	0.17	0.19

8 processes:
Average		6.45	8.79	14.00	5.57	6.23	7.57
St dev		1.27	1.04	0.88	1.42	1.46	1.42

32 processes:
Average		5.56	8.43	13.78	5.28	5.55	7.15
St dev		0.41	0.47	0.53	0.54	0.57	0.81

The numbers are the mean and standard deviation of 20 runs of
lat_ctx.  The "none" columns are lat_ctx run directly without any
counters.  The "2 HW" columns are with lat_ctx run under perfstat,
counting cycles and instructions.  The "4H+4S" columns are lat_ctx run
under perfstat with 4 hardware counters and 4 software counters
(cycles, instructions, cache references, cache misses, task
clock, context switch, cpu migrations, and page faults).

a63eaf34ae perf_counter: Dynamically allocate tasks' perf_counter_context struct
This replaces the struct perf_counter_context in the task_struct with
a pointer to a dynamically allocated perf_counter_context struct.  The
main reason for doing is this is to allow us to transfer a
perf_counter_context from one task to another when we do lazy PMU
switching in a later patch.

This has a few side-benefits: the task_struct becomes a little smaller,
we save some memory because only tasks that have perf_counters attached
get a perf_counter_context allocated for them, and we can remove the
inclusion of <linux/perf_counter.h> in sched.h, meaning that we don't
end up recompiling nearly everything whenever perf_counter.h changes.

The perf_counter_context structures are reference-counted and freed
when the last reference is dropped.  A context can have references
from its task and the counters on its task.  Counters can outlive the
task so it is possible that a context will be freed well after its
task has exited.

Contexts are allocated on fork if the parent had a context, or
otherwise the first time that a per-task counter is created on a task.
In the latter case, we set the context pointer in the task struct
locklessly using an atomic compare-and-exchange operation in case we
raced with some other task in creating a context for the subject task.

This also removes the task pointer from the perf_counter struct.  The
task pointer was not used anywhere and would make it harder to move a
context from one task to another.  Anything that needed to know which
task a counter was attached to was already using counter->ctx->task.

The __perf_counter_init_context function moves up in perf_counter.c
so that it can be called from find_get_context, and now initializes
the refcount, but is otherwise unchanged.

We were potentially calling list_del_counter twice: once from
__perf_counter_exit_task when the task exits and once from
__perf_counter_remove_from_context when the counter's fd gets closed.
This adds a check in list_del_counter so it doesn't do anything if
the counter has already been removed from the lists.

Since perf_counter_task_sched_in doesn't do anything if the task doesn't
have a context, and leaves cpuctx->task_ctx = NULL, this adds code to
__perf_install_in_context to set cpuctx->task_ctx if necessary, i.e. in
the case where the current task adds the first counter to itself and
thus creates a context for itself.

This also adds similar code to __perf_counter_enable to handle a
similar situation which can arise when the counters have been disabled
using prctl; that also leaves cpuctx->task_ctx = NULL.

On the 83xx controller, snooping is necessary for the DMA controller to

bcfb7465c0 fsldma: fix infinite loop on multi-descriptor DMA chain completion
When creating a DMA transaction with multiple descriptors, the async_tx
cookie is set to 0 for each descriptor in the chain, excluding the last
descriptor, whose cookie is set to -EBUSY.

When fsl_dma_tx_submit() is run, it only assigns a cookie to the first
descriptor. All of the remaining descriptors keep their original value,
including the last descriptor, which is set to -EBUSY.

After the DMA completes, the driver will update the last completed cookie
to be -EBUSY, which is an error code instead of a valid cookie. This causes
dma_async_is_complete() to always return DMA_IN_PROGRESS.

This causes the fsldma driver to never cleanup the queue of link
descriptors, and the driver will re-run the DMA transaction on the hardware
each time it receives the End-of-Chain interrupt. This causes an infinite
loop.

With this patch, fsl_dma_tx_submit() is changed to assign a cookie to every
descriptor in the chain. The rest of the code then works without problems.

138ef01851 fsldma: fix "DMA halt timeout!" errors
When using the DMA controller from multiple threads at the same time, it is
possible to get lots of "DMA halt timeout!" errors printed to the kernel
log.

This occurs due to a race between fsl_dma_memcpy_issue_pending() and the
interrupt handler, fsl_dma_chan_do_interrupt(). Both call the
fsl_chan_xfer_ld_queue() function, which does not protect against
concurrent accesses to dma_halt() and dma_start().

The existing spinlock is moved to cover the dma_halt() and dma_start()
functions. Testing shows that the "DMA halt timeout!" errors disappear.

e069c0cf7c wimax/i2400m: usb: fix device reset on autosuspend while not yet idle
When the i2400m is connected to a network, the host interface (USB)
cannot be suspended. For that to happen, the device has to have
negotiated with the basestation to put the link on IDLE state.

If the host tries to put the device in standby while it is connected
but not idle, the device resets, as the driver should not do that.

To avoid triggering that, when the USB susbsytem requires the driver
to autosuspend the device, the driver checks if the device is not yet
idle. If it is not, the request is rejected (will be retried again
later on after the autosuspend timeout). At some point the device will
enter idle and the request will succeed (unless of course, there is
network traffic, but at that point, there is no idle neither in the
link or the host interface).

c9d9ac525a integrity: move ima_counts_get
Based on discussion on lkml (Andrew Morton and Eric Paris),
move ima_counts_get down a layer into shmem/hugetlb__file_setup().
Resolves drm shmem_file_setup() usage case as well.

HD comment:
  I still think you're doing this at the wrong level, but recognize
  that you probably won't be persuaded until a few more users of
  alloc_file() emerge, all wanting your ima_counts_get().

  Resolving GEM's shmem_file_setup() is an improvement, so I'll say

932995f0ce IMA: Add __init notation to ima functions
A number of IMA functions only used during init are not marked with __init.
Add those notations so they are freed automatically.

5789ba3bd0 IMA: Minimal IMA policy and boot param for TCB IMA policy
The IMA TCB policy is dangerous.  A normal use can use all of a system's
memory (which cannot be freed) simply by building and running lots of
executables.  The TCB policy is also nearly useless because logging in as root
often causes a policy violation when dealing with utmp, thus rendering the
measurements meaningless.

There is no good fix for this in the kernel.  A full TCB policy would need to
be loaded in userspace using LSM rule matching to get both a protected and
useful system.  But, if too little is measured before userspace can load a real
policy one again ends up with a meaningless set of measurements.  One option
would be to put the policy load inside the initrd in order to get it early
enough in the boot sequence to be useful, but this runs into trouble with the
LSM.  For IMA to measure the LSM policy and the LSM policy loading mechanism
it needs rules to do so, but we already talked about problems with defaulting
to such broad rules....

IMA also depends on the files being measured to be on an FS which implements
and supports i_version.  Since the only FS with this support (ext4) doesn't
even use it by default it seems silly to have any IMA rules by default.

This should reduce the performance overhead of IMA to near 0 while still
letting users who choose to configure their machine as such to inclue the
ima_tcb kernel paramenter and get measurements during boot before they can
load a customized, reasonable policy in userspace.

703a3b8e5c [CIFS] fix posix open regression
Posix open code was not properly adding the file to the
list of open files.  Fix  allocating cifsFileInfo
more than once, and adding twice to flist and tlist.
Also fix mode setting to be done in one place in these
paths.

3ed18d76d9 ipv4: Fix oops with FIB_TRIE
It seems we can fix this by disabling preemption while we re-balance the 
trie. This is with the CONFIG_CLASSIC_RCU. It's been stress-tested at high 
loads continuesly taking a full BGP table up/down via iproute -batch.

Note. fib_trie is not updated for CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU
